Consumer Description
Warning lights for the ABS and the Electronic Brake System illuminated while driving, stating the systems must be serviced. The Cruise Control would either turn off or become nonfunctional. The tone would sound and the warning lights would illuminate. I took the truck in to the dealership after it happened but the lights would not come on while I was there. The dealership told me they could do nothing about it. After that, the tone began to sound and the lights came on again. We finally made it to the dealership when they could see the warnings. The service technician inspected the ABS and found that the ABS HCU had shorted internally. Further inspection found the ABS Module also shorted internally. Two trips were made to the dealership because the dealership did not have the parts in stock. This occurred at the same time as the cyberattacks which affected parts delivery and we were not notified the parts were in for over a month. The cost of the these two visits were over $1,400.
